Last word on this one. This is not to question an official at any level who made a call or non-call.
It is a foul, especially on the replay angle that we can all see. I am not making any inference that these officials are being inconsistent at all in this game.
Do I see a obvious foul on this play from the center who is moving, looking through 3 other players in front of him and sees the back of the defender? Sorry, no I don't.
He saw something that his partners may or may not have seen, but he blew his whistle and made a call.
The lead is looking directly at these two players, but does not look like a good angle to see the body contact.
If the trail comes in on his angle being able to look through the players and we have a double whistle, then we have confirmation that 2 officials saw the play and agree on a foul.
It looks like by the trail's head movement that he may have not had the best look, so thus hold your whistle.
I don't see any of the officials with a clear open look of the entire play, because of the ending angle and the movement of the other players in the off ball areas.
The administrators made a point that this is a learning environment and needs to stay as such. Please keep your comments cordial and support your fellow officials.
